- Blue: reputation Face, picture, recital, standing
- Purple: Ends with Synonyms to “Yuck“Dynasty, Engross, Gimmick, Mildew
- My rating: Moderate
- My score: 1 Error
I just made a mistake today, but I classified this as a dirty victory as I had no idea what any of the categories had and had zero trust everywhere in the fact that any of my four word groups were correct.
First I saw 16 random words with only three very exciting links – sole and heel (soul and heal), capacity and seating (theaters), consideration and standing (class system). Instead, I felt similar-sounding groups together and somehow flicked through.
My mistake came with the last two groups. For reasons, I can’t even explain that I had committed wrong, but the other three words are correct. When I got “one away” I swapped my tongue and kicked myself, which I had at least not seen this group.
How did you do today? Tell me that in the comments below.

What are new connections?
New Connections is one of several increasingly popular word games made by the New York Times. It challenges you to find groups of four objects that share something in common, and each group has another level of difficulty: green is light, yellow a little harder, blue often quite hard and purple usually very difficult.
On the plus side, you do not have to technically solve the last one, as you can answer one by an elimination process. In addition, you can make up to four errors, giving you a little bit of breathing room.
However, it is a little more involved than something like Wordle, and there are plenty of opportunities for the game to get up with tricks. For example, be careful on gay and other word games that can hide the answers.
It can be played free of charge via the new Games website on desktop or mobile.
